Why It’s Important to Have a Healthy Gut

Bifina highlights how a healthy gut plays a crucial role in every family’s overall wellness.

The past three years definitely emphasized the importance of focusing on our family’s health and well-being. The realization prompted parents to make changes in their diet and lifestyle, which Bifina hopes to help with. During a recent launch event, they highlighted how a healthy gut is important. It allows you to digest better, regulate blood sugar, and absorb more nutrients in the body.

A healthy gut equals a healthy family

The launch was full of “gut-sy” games and gastronomic Japanese food at Hotel Okura. Guests who attended were transported to a Japanese-themed affair to highlight the origin of Bifina, a premium probiotics brand that has been number one in Japan for 25 years.

Gut health is important because it aids in the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the body. If your gut is imbalanced, you may have trouble regulating blood sugar, too. In fact, certain conditions tend to stem from these imbalances. These include acid refluxes, heartburn, bloating, skin rashes, allergies, and more.

VPharma VP for Operations Vincent Dy discovered the Japanese homegrown product due to his grandmother who was constipated for a long time. He was able to source Bifina and let his grandmother try it, which helped her tremendously. “The probiotics won’t work if it’s dead. So we need the probiotics alive to reach the gut for it to work and flourish inside the intestines,” he shares.

Bifina delivers live probiotic strains

Dy expressed his pride that Bifina is the only brand in the Philippines that can deliver live probiotic strains to the intestines with a 90% survival rate. This is due to the patented double-enteric microencapsulation technology made by Morishita Jintan Co. Ltd that coats the prebiotic and probiotic strains from saliva, esophageal acid, and other gastric acids. This was also a factor why Bifina has been the number one probiotics supplement in Japan.
